Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Develop scope of model
   • Identify relevant data processes and sources of information
   • Identify information-gathering method and modelling methodology to be used
   • Document modelling information gathered
   • Validate modelling information with client
2. Gather process data
   • Identify business functions and collect process data using chosen method
   • Identify external events, procedures and results
   • Identify processes and required decomposition
3. Develop and validate data model
   • Model process data according to modelling methodology

Evidence Required

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package

Overview of assessment
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	Evidence of the ability to identify data processes that represent the clients business reality model these processes according to industry and organisation standard document the model
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment must ensure access to appropriate learning and assessment support when required modified equipment for people with special needs client business requirements database software computeraided software engineering CASE tools or other modelling software
Method of assessment	A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge The following examples are appropriate for this unit verbal or written questioning to assess candidates knowledge of process modelling business rules review of completed data model and associated documentation prepared by candidate
Guidance information for assessment	Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector workplace and job role is recommended where appropriate Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and suitable to the communication skill level language literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed Indigenous people and other people from a nonEnglish speaking background may need additional support In cases where practical assessment is used it should be combined with targeted questioning to assess required knowledge

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Information gathering method may include:	interviews observation questionnaires surveys.
Modelling may include:	activity definition report (process definition) activity dependency diagram activity hierarchy diagrams (process diagrams) data flow diagrams use case diagrams.
Client may include:	employees external organisations individuals internal departments.
